**Decomposed Body of Youth Found Covered in Sand Inside House in Indore**
Indore (Madhya Pradesh): The decomposed body of a 27-year-old youth, partially eaten by maggots, was found covered in sand inside his house under the Lasudia police station limits on Monday.
The incident came to light when a neighbour alerted the police about a foul smell emanating from the house. Upon entering, the police discovered the body half-covered with sand.
According to authorities, the deceased has been identified as Vikram Panwar, a resident of Lasudia Mori. ACP Aditya Patle stated that the presence of maggots on the body indicates that the death occurred several days ago.
A post-mortem examination has been conducted to ascertain the exact cause of death. Additionally, the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) team inspected the scene alongside the police.
ACP Patle also mentioned that the deceased was mentally unwell and lived separately from his family.
Meanwhile, family members have alleged foul play, claiming that Vikram was murdered because his body was found covered in sand. They added that he had not communicated with them for the past week.
The house was reportedly locked from the inside. When the foul odour began to spread, a neighbour grew suspicious and informed the police. The exact cause of death is still unclear, and investigations are ongoing.
